Recipe: Single Crispy White Pizza

1 large whole-grain tortilla*
1/3 cup lowfat ricotta cheese
1/4 cup chopped or thinly sliced onion
2 TBSP grated parmesan
About 6 fresh basil leaves
3 thinly sliced cherry tomatoes
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/8+ tsp salt
Black pepper
Optional: Extra lowfat mozzarella or Italian blend cheese

Preheat oven to 375. Place tortilla on a sprayed baking sheet and bake about 5 minutes each side until slightly crisped. In a small bowl, mix ricotta, parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Saute the onions in a sprayed nonstick skillet until lightly browned and stir into cheese mixture. Spread onto the tortilla and top with the tomato slices, basil leaves, and optional extra cheese. Lightly sprinkle the top with more salt, and return to the oven for about 5 minutes.
Calories: 225 (without extra cheese) Protein: 20-30 grams. (Fat and fiber vary depending on what you use.)
*I like La Tortilla Factory 100-calorie large tortillas. They taste great like a regular tortilla. Some high-fiber/low-carb tortillas are really awful, but I highly recommend these. This is adapted from an original Hungry Girl recipe.
